£75,000 buy who was runner-up sole outing in points and went one better in a Bangor bumper in October 2024. Made a winning start over hurdles at Fakenham and not disgraced at Leicester and Newbury prior to shaping as if amiss on handicap debut at Doncaster when last seen. Worth another chance.

Enthusiastic front runner who was successful 3 times over hurdles in 2025. Quickly returned to form when fourth of 9 in 17f handicap at Sedgefield (17f, good) 9 days ago, though had the run of the race. Left on same mark.

Won both outings in bumpers and made the most of a good opportunity fitted with first-time blinkers when off the mark over hurdles in 3-runner novice at Kelso (21f) 23 days ago. Should remain competitive now making a belated switch to handicap company.

Bumper winner who gave her all after 4 months off when third of 10 in 2m novice hurdle (28/1) at Perth (good to soft) 34 days ago. Needs more back in handicap company, though.

Forecasts

Jentobello (5/2), Max Of Stars (7/2), Roarin' Success (7/2), Hunters Spring (4/1), Pyramid Place (8/1), North Of Richmond (10/1)

Verdict

NORTH OF RICHMOND ran too badly to be true on his handicap debut at Doncaster when last seen in February and is well worth another chance having beaten Codetalker, who's now rated 124, on his hurdling debut at Fakenham around this time last year. Jentobello and Roarin' Success head the dangers.
